Yes there is no cap at justice points but the people thinking "hey i'm gonna farm 20k jp before mop hits" are in for a surprise since both jp and valor gear requires faction rep with every single faction pretty much, which is honored for jp that rewards 450 ilvl gear(hint: heroics reward 463 ilvl gear) and revered for valor which is 489.

Yeah, there really will be no reason to stockpile JP. I think you will be able to buy 8 pieces of gear (depending on your spec) and it will be spread across 4 factions. JP gear only requires Honored, which you will get from questing through the appropriate zones. But the big thing is that the JP gear you can buy from the faction vendors is a tier below what drops in heroic dungeons. It isn´t like previous expansion where JP gear was equal to heroic gear.

But I kinda messed up. I have already started preparing for the 4000 JP cap by transfering my JP into Honor. Now we know there isn´t a cap, I will lose some more for transfering. I was basing it on the PTR, where there was a 4000 JP cap and you got gold for anything over 4k.

Damn, lame. I was stockpiling my Valor and capped my JP in hopes of a nice little sum from a Valor to gold conversion like prior expansions I should have been selling gear 6 months ago lol. Should have known it was too good to be true.

This implies that you'll get Valor points not just from daily Heroic dungeons, but from all of them (regardless of how many you do). And also from Scenarios, it seems. This brings up two questions;
1. How do you get Justice?
2. What is Justice for if you'll just get Valor from virtually everything you do? I am aware of the cap, but aside from that.

I believe justice points are awarded for normal instances in MOP. The idea is that you can get JP to buy rares from the venders in order to prepare for Heroic MOP instances that will give you VP.

I don't know how I feel about valor points being used to just upgrade gear. I feel like blizzard is just going to test this system out and then in a patch or two fall back and just reintroduce actual items again.
